Not without compromised certificates they haven't. You can tell because if they did they'd be world famous for having destroyed any and all internet security. Then again, they'd probably already be famous for having figured out a way to salt, hash and store passwords without ever holding them in memory first like they claim to do above, so maybe someone is lying on the internet about their vague "proprietary network protocols".
